Talking about plans and arranging meet-ups: making suggestions, expressing preferences, and nailing down the details.
About this lesson
In this first B1-level lesson, you'll dive into real-life situations around planning a night out with friends. You'll practise making polite suggestions, accepting and declining invitations, pinning down times and places, and handling the subtle language of preferences and last-minute changes. A perfect entry point for B1, the lesson builds on familiar structures and nudges you towards more natural, spontaneous speech.
